    Since empty spawners are now available, it would be nice if they would drop when using Silk Touch on an existing spawner. The empty spawner could then be used as a decorative block.

    Since spawn eggs are not available in survival, the gameplay impact of this change has been mitigated.

    Expand the snowAccumulationHeight topic. Snow could accumulate to any height by default, but the average would be ~1.5 blocks for very cold biomes and ~0.5 blocks for moderately cold ones. "Balancing" will occur due to the layer-by-layer disappearance (melting) of snow, in clear weather. So the surface will change over time, but remain smooth and uniform, while not perfectly flat.

    I have three main points of feedback. 

    1. Bamboo planks and bamboo mosaics are ordered weirdly in the Creative inventory. The current order is 'Bamboo Planks, Bamboo Mosaic, Bamboo Stairs, Bamboo Mosaic Stairs, Bamboo Slab, Bamboo Mosaic Slab'. I would change it to 'Bamboo Planks, Bamboo Stairs, Bamboo Slab, Bamboo Mosaic, Bamboo Mosaic Stairs, Bamboo Mosaic Slab'. This way, the two are a bit more separated. The current "overlapping" layout just confuses me. 
    2. The 'snowAccumulationHeight' game rule is great! But I'd increase the upper limit to 16 or 32, just for the possibility of some extreme weather over time. I'd also make negative values allow snow to fall on full blocks of snow layers, effectively allowing snow to pile up forever. Obviously not a very practical use, but a fun one. 
    3. Lastly, I think the 'waterSourceConversion' and 'lavaSourceConversion' game rules be dimension-specific, allowing, for example, the Nether to renew lava but not the Overworld. Perhaps an additional field after the true/false for the dimension. If no dimension is specified, it applies the change to all 3, or just the current one. 

    Lastly, I just want to say that this snapshot is amazing. I especially like the explosion-related game rules. I can finally make creepers give me back that wall they blew up!

    The gamrule about the snow layer is really great, having a value of 3 for exemple can make the terrain in cold biomes much more detailed, I think this gamerule should now be at an higher value, that would be awesome to have a smoother terrain by default

    Also, speaking of the snow, it would be really cool if there was the snowlogging system from Bedrock, having flowers and grass that make random hole in the snow with a flower/grass in the middle isn't great, the snowlogging would be so cool

    Loving the new snapshot spawn eggs! Though I think the Snow Golem spawn egg should have some orange! I think the Creative inventory still needs some tweaking as well, just so it lines up in menu. Perhaps move doors and trapdoors to their own area below wood and planks?

    ^^ Or move the wood in place of trapdoors and doors

    The OP only items should be reordered. The debug stick is a tool that goes in the utility items tab. The light, structure void, and barrier blocks should be moved to the utility blocks tab.

    The chiselled bookshelf needs serious work. (I've tried making a separate thread about this but it just keeps getting deleted)

    The fact that you have to take out every single book just to get the first one out makes the block both extremely unintuitive and not easy to use. Thanks to the game's current inventory issues, you're not even likely to have 6 slots available to take said books out.

    Mojang appear to have taken a "Good enough" approach to adding this feature, which just isn't good enough, and the choices they made have rendered this item nearly unusable for its functional purpose.

    We Just need structure blocks illusioner and giant mob eggs in the creative inventory and then I think we would have every item available in there also I wish Wither and Ender Dragon eggs were in the creative inventory too i know they said that they did not want people to accidentally destroy their builds so they should make it a option when you create a new world that is always set as off so you would have to manually turn it on

    In the last 2 snapshots the game menu script in the pause screen has been moved down and the whole pause screen settings are now offset downwards, I would like them to be centered again, perhaps bring the game menu script up again as it was in 1.19.2 and in the previous versions.

     

    The creative inventory on the other hand is well organised now, however I think that the diamond sword should be the icon for the weapons section.

     

    An option to keep the old inventory layout would be a welcome addition.

    This started happening in the last two updates:

    The pillagers crossbow firings are shooting 90 degrees to their right.

    I agree with you, however I think OP only items should have their own inventory tab.
